who'll come back for you?

trust is an issue for everyone. for me, it can be.
i can't fully trust some of the most important people in my life.
maybe that means i have trust issues, but it seems i trust strangers more than people i know.

sometimes i think i have trouble trusting some people for a few reasons.
1) i don't feel worth keeping a promise to
2) if i was keeping a certain promise like that to someone, i myself wouldn't keep it
3) i make myself vulnerable, and usually give everyone a chance to stab me in the back
on the other hand, i easily trust people too, unless they give me a reason not to. it's probably easier to trust people you just meet though, because even if they don't follow through it's not a blow to the heart. it's funny how that works. it should be easier to trust people closer to you and difficult to trust strangers rather than the other way around...

you know how i picture it?
you know in the Titanic, when Jack is handcuffed to that column in the bottom of the ship? and when Rose finds him, she goes to find help and she promises to come back?
well, i put myself in Jack's situation.
if i was handcuffed to a sinking ship, who would come back for me? i close my eyes and place myself in that situation, and then i alternate who's in Rose's position. if you were going to drown in a sinking ship, who do you think you'd feel most comfortable knowing they had your life in their hands?

and when you stand there handcuffed, and they go to find help, what are you thinking? sometimes it's "oh shit, i pretty much committed suicide" if you feel you don't trust that person will come back for you. but sometimes it's "i can't wait to get out of here" if you feel you do trust that they will come back for you.

it's weird to think about. who'll come back for you?

to me

Over the sea and far away
She's waiting like an iceberg
Waiting to change
But she's cold inside
She wants to be like the water

All the muscles tighten in her face Buries her soul in one embrace They're one and the same Just like water

On comes the panic light Holding on with fingers and feelings alike But the time has come To move along

Can you help me Can you let me go
And can you still love me When you can't see me anymore

And the fire fades away Most of everyday
Is full of tired excuses But it's too hard to say
I wish it were simple But we give up easily
You're close enough to see that
You're on the other side of the world to me

last night had a dream 'bout...

i was with Alison, who i hung out with all the time in grade nine.
we were at school. it was lunch everyone was outside
and across the street by the elementary the members of Keane were there.
so i was like "i wanna run up to them. but thats gay cuz i dunno what to say i cant be all like OMG YOU GUYS ARE AWESOME. cuz everyone says that". so i was shy and didn't go see them.
actually, no one was going to see them.

but then i was like.. aww fuck it, so we go see them
then all of a sudden they're not there
instead, theres this popular group at my school standing in their place
so im like ok, moving along
and the members of Keane are up ahead of me, walking beside the school across the street
and all of a sudden i can't get to them because all of a sudden people are just everywhere, when a second ago they couldnt care less
so we decide to go inside the school, and go outside from the doors they were leaning on, then we'd end up right next to them
so we carry out that plan
and then .. while we're in the school, we see a conference or something
with adults and people that i know from school
so i was like wtf why are you guys having a conference

i never said that, but thats what i thought

then, where the door to the outside was supposed to be, was a mall

inside the school
so we were looking at make up and stuff

and i picked up eyeliner and lipstick and eyeshadow..

stuff i usually never buy at drug stores

and i bought them in the color brown

which was weird too

i also remember there was something else we picked up,

i can't remember what but it was really important i think

so we walked out

the alarms beeped

and i joked around with the cop

and he let us go

and that's it. weird hey? and when i got to the mall part, i completely forgot about Keane and stuff..

fucking crazy i say

you wanna see

kay so a while ago i watched this movie called The Triplettes of Belleville. there's no dialogue, it was made in Canada, it's a french movie, and it's animated. but it's animation is done so well and it exaggerates features. if you wanna watch it, go to my YouTube account (link on right), and there's 8 parts to it. it's a really sweet movie. i totally recommend watching it

i wanna see

thanks msn.com, i will get right on that.

can't decide

i can't decide whether i feel like a fag
or a genius.

but my absense of a wisdom tooth is really killing me right about now.

there's only one thing i regret about last entry.
helping people can get you farther in life. but the majority of it lays on your own shoulders.
HA and i am kind of a believer in Karma lol

i'm feeling controversial

i would like to announce to the public, whether you agree or not, that i am brilliant. i honestly think i am brilliant. as a matter of fact, i know i'm brilliant.

for reasons i cannot include, i have included them in a previous unpublished post. so lucky for you, you will never know what just happened to me or what i wrote in a post you will never lay your eyes on. things happened. several things actually. for one, i got a slap in the face that didn't hurt one bit which was probably the best thing ever. for another, i found a purpose for the white string tied around my wrist. for a third, i had an epiphany, just like the many epiphanies i've had before. for a fourth, i'm quite confident in this epiphany.

hmm. i'm feeling quite smug right now i'm not gonna lie. and yes, i do feel quite arrogant and superficial and cocky and selfish. but here's the beauty of it all: i'm happy. sitting right here, right now, i've never been so sure of myself. and yes, i am admitting to my arrogance, my cockiness, whatever else you may call it. but it's awesome. people always try so hard to be selfless and to bend over backwards for everyone else. well what the fuck. who gives a fuck about everyone else sometimes. seriously. it's only you thats gonna take you into this life, not the people you help, unless you're a firm believer in karma and such things as that and also some sort of political leader. which i am not. i am merely a high school student who's an arrogant bitch. i also tend to kiss ass a lot as well.

and fuck am i ever on a roll. you don't even understand. i've never felt so liberated in my whole entire life. i mean, it sucks trying to be someone you're not. and i am just so proud of myself in the way i've been handling situations recently. yes i said it. i am proud of myself. fucking proud at that, too. and yes, that was an arrogant statement. and i realize that. it's about time everyone understood just how arrogant i can be.

and what the fuck, tomorrow morning i may regret this whole thing. tomorrow morning i may think every word i said here is bull shit. tomorrow morning i may laugh at myself or smack my head against the wall. but that's just part of who i am. i say shit one day, and go totally against it the other day. i am a hypocrite. and that's something else i'm not afraid to admit. and who said it was a bad thing?

i think everyone would just be so much better off actually admitting they're flaws. flaws aren't even bad. why has society turned self-righteousness into something so horrible? when did that ever start? the fact that it's so looked down upon makes people hide it. and hiding it just suckas major ass i'm not gonna lie. if it's part of who you are, why should you not admit to it. all i want to see is for one person to be angry at another and call them an arrogant bastard, and for that arrogant bastard to be like "yup". then what? trying to hide it just creates unnecessary baggage. admitting it and brushing it off your shoulder makes it so much easier to deal with.

it's just so liberating. *sigh* you may think i'm going nuts. blame me. i got my wisdom tooth pulled this morning.
i lost some wisdom possibly. i beg to differ however, because i feel wiser than ever. i feel smarter than ever. i feel more brilliant than ever.

and yes, that was three arrogant statements in a row =)

i am also really sorry for the eff-words included. i feel like a major loser for that. but i gotta run free sometimes right?

good for nothing type of brother Silly me, why haven't I found another A baller, when times get hard he's the one to help me out instead of, a scrub like you who don't know what a man's about

lethal injection

i just watched the hanging of Saddam Hussein on you tube. all i have to say is that i don't think anyone should get hanged no matter what they did. i mean, i thought hanging was something that happened only a long time ago, i thought they didn't do that kind of thing nowadays. it made me sad to watch him standing there as they talked to him and as they covered his neck with the black cloth, and when they put the rope around his neck. i mean, what could possibly be going through your mind at that point in time? walking up to the rope and seeing it go around your head. up to the point where you know in about seconds the floor below you is going to open up and you only have air underneath you and arope holding you up. what could possibly be going through your head at that point? i can't even wrap my mind around that concept. i know i probably wouldn't be thinking of God, or my family. i can't think whether i'd be crying my eyes out or so shocked i wouldn't be feeling any sort of emotion whatsoever. knowing me, i'd probably think of all the bad things in life and have the mind-set that it's really better to die than to live in this world along with all the bad things that i would think up. i know it's a bad way to think, but i'm just saying exactly what i would probably do under those kind of circumstances. i wouldn't be able to think positively. how could you ever think of something positive? you're about to die for fuck sakes. if you think positive, you'll just become even more saddened by the fact that life really is so good and that it would be the worst most awful thing to die then.. especially that way. i don't think he should've been hanged. lethal injection would have been the way to go...

feels like a midget is hanging from my necklace

so it's january 1st hey. and considering i can say that the first five hours of 2007, i was talking to Jordan on MSN, it should be a rather good year. also, the fact that i did have a spoonful of lentils last night is a very positive thing.it's kind of a tradition for my whole family on New Years. after midnight rolls around, my aunt brings down the lentils, and we all have some for good luck and money in the new year. i never had any last year 'cause it looked nasty, but i had some this year. i mean, the way things are going, this year might've been one of the worst definitely. between horrible school marks, getting dumped by one of the coolest guys i've ever met, going through hell trying to get over one of the coolest guys i've ever met, Smokey dying, that April incident, getting caught up in a huge mess for four months with someone who obviously doesn't have the same feelings, realizing that i should leave that mess of four months behind in 2006 and start new for this year, and i guess Italy was good but since i'm trying desperately to be negative here to earn some of your sympathy and prove that this year was in fact awful in more ways than just a few, it would have been better if my brother came along and i didn't have to go just with my mother.
i guess the fact that i am still living and breathing and experiencing no pain neither emotional or physical, i can say that this year just might go fairly well.

but beginnings are a bitch in the way that they always seem to be peachy....

fetal position

Leigha is over and we watched Garedn State and then Requiem For A Dream.

i sat there watching it. and there's this one point where there's these two guys hospitalizing the old lady who's so fucked up on some form on drugs that she took for dieting, and here she is, with this life story about her husband dying and her son who's into drugs and this whole fixation on television, and losing weight to fit in her red dress. she's a fuckin mess, and these guys are hospitalizing her talking about their weekends and stuff. and it's so weird, how three different lives can be in the same room. like, i imagine each person as if they're a huge piece of paper with everything written on them about every single detail about their life. and how they can just be in the same room together, discussing their weekend while this lady's been living this huge ordeal.. it's just.. weird to think about. i dunno..

and then at the end they show all four characters in these awful situations.. Harry in the hospital bed with an amputated arm from shooting infections, Sarah in the hospital after losing her mind over diet pills, Marion on the couch after a nice orgy that left a nice wad of cash in her hands, and Tyrone on a jail bed missing his mother..

and all they seem to find is the little comfort in the fetal position.
isn't that what people do when they're scared?? go in the fetal position?
when your in a mother's womb, you're in the fetal position.. maybe it's comforting in that way.

it's cool to think about..

my declaration

i have just treated myself to a viewing of Bridget Jones' Diary. i would like to conclude, that even though i have seen this movie many times before, this is the first time i have felt it was worth a little chat about in my blog. it's one of those movies you watch 'cause you can't think of anything to watch, and after about the 50th time you've watched it, you realize just how good it makes you feel, and then you realize how stupid you are for not considering it one of your favorites.

so i would now like to take this time to declare my love for this particular movie and the way it makes me feel, and the way it seems to clear up any dark clouds that may be hanging over my head, and i would also like to declare that i have not seen The Edge of Reason, although i now have this longing to.

so i will leave you with that. simply because i want to go search for The Edge of Reason on Google...

ha its nice to know i guess

You're a Passionate Kisser

-For you, kissing is about all about following your urges -If someone's hot, you'll go in for the kiss - end of story -You can keep any relationship hot with your steamy kisses -A total spark plug - your kisses are bound to get you in trouble

What Kind of Kisser Are You?

i was tempted and wanted to share

The Keys to Your Heart

-You are attracted to those who have a split personality - cold as ice on the outside but hot as fire in the heart. -In love, you feel the most alive when your lover is creative and never lets you feel bored. -You'd like to your lover to think you are stylish and alluring. -You would be forced to break up with someone who was emotional, moody, and difficult to please. -Your ideal relationship is lasting. You want a relationship that looks to the future... one you can grow with. -Your risk of cheating is zero. You care about society and morality. You would never break a commitment. -You think of marriage as something precious. You'll treasure marriage and treat it as sacred. -In this moment, you think of love as something you can get or discard anytime. You're feeling self centered.

What Are The Keys To Your Heart?

when your heart stops beating

i haven't seriously written in a long time. my days are pretty bland these days. i dedicated this week to my learners which i successfully received this morning.. well afternoon. i woke up at 1 15, my brother banging on the door saying he was gonna take me to get it, so i got ready in 20 minutes, went and got it. all within one hour haha. but i didn't get my photo thing done 'cause i was without parents. but i was happy i got it this time. 'cause i would've hated to fail it again. like fuck.

so i've been going to bed pretty early lately. like literally, two nights ago i went to sleep at 3 am, the night after that it was 5 am, and this morning i went to bed at 8 am. aren't you proud? haha. i should've pulled an all-nighter.

next week should be great though. i doubt the good ol' tongues getting pierced though unless i wanna get it ripped out or something. i got a christmas card from my parents with money in it and it said "and this money is NOT to get any tongue piercings!" and i was like aaeruheubgdusbgsfb. but i guess it's kinda cool. i mean, every teenager goes through that haha. "aww but mother i wanna get this pierced!" "i will not allow that over my dead body" or some shit like that. haha. *sigh* its cool to some extent i guess.

i am currently working on a list of things i've learned. you know how people always have those things "i've learned that.. blah blah" , well i'm making one. except it'll be a ton of levels less cheesy haha.

it's pretty relaxing though. i had this huge cloud hanging over my head for months to get this stupid learners, and now it's finally cleared over.

there's some really gay shit on YouTube..

you know whats an excellent song? Que Me Quedes Tu by Shakira. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RQNQ60mrQeE yup mhm. i don't know what everyone's deal is. some people think she's annoying.. i dunno, i thnk she's a really hot voice.. it's like different you know. and si think she's really raw. to be honest, i really love the Whenever Wherever video. i think it's really sweet and she's such a good dancer it blows my mind. La Tortura is a good video too.

i also watched the video Stutter by Joe. haha. i love that song. hmmm.

hmm i think i may be fresh out of words. i've been using them all too much these past few days.

i wanna go snowboarding next week. i told my brother i'd go with him. that should be swell

"As every voice is hanging from the silence Lamps are hanging from the ceiling Like a lady tied to her manners Im tied up to this feeling"

i crossed one out

instant pick me up

Sick and tired of hearing All these people talk about What's the deal with this pop life And when is gonna fade out The thing you got to realize What we doing is not a trend We got the gift of melody We gonna bring it till the end It doesn't matter 'Bout the car I drive or What I wear around my neck All that matters Is that you recognize That it's just about respect It doesn't matter About the clothes I wear And where I go and why All that matters Is that you get hyped and We'll do it to you every time Do you ever wonder why This music gets you high? It takes you on a ride Feel it when your body Starts to rock Baby you can't stop And the music's all you got Come on now This must be, pop Dirty pop Baby you can't stop I know you Like this dirty pop This must be Now, why you wanna try To classify the type of thing That we do 'Cause we're just fine Doin what we like Can we say the same for you? Tired of feelin all Around me animosity Just worry about yours 'Cause I'ma get mine Now people can't you see

my new staple

sleeveless hoodies


AHHH I LOVE THEM SO MUCH

and you know what's great? they're comfy, fashionable, you can play around with the shirt underneath to create different looks, wearing necklaces with them looks great, PLUS: ITS NOT MAINSTREAM!! like.. no one has them. they're amazing.

the best thing ever

kay so like i just got the most random phone call EVER. here i am sitting at my computer talking to people on MSN, including my friend Pablo (i dedicated an entry to him) and i was also talking to Joe and Andre and my homie Jordan (bbs). and all of a sudden the phone starts ringing and i look at my phone it says "Unknown Caller" so i didn't pick it up. then i hear footsteps coming to my room and i was like "ughhh someones calling me" which sometimes i hate when i'm already doing something. so i was like "hello?" and this guy was like "hey" and i was like "who is this?" and he was like "guess?" and i was like.. "i have no idea" and that went on for like another two times. and then i was just like





omg

what are you doing

calling long distance

?!?!?!?!


..it was Pablo. i haven't talked to him in like 3 years.. i miss that kid so much. like i can honestly say i love that kid. we had a lot of fun in junior high..
well i just got off the phone with him after an hour and 45 minute conversation (since it's like 1:30 in Montreal right now), and i just had to write about it because it absolutely made my day. not even my day.. it made my week.
like wow.
i miss him =(

"Don't hurt my feelers" -Pablo Cifuentes

my daddy built those stairs

so here's the list of the things i got for Christmas that i absolutely adored (which is pretty much everything):

from my brother
- a really sweet navy blue and red and white bag from Nokomis
- a huge ass book of Andy Warhol from Chapters (has EVERYTHING and ANYTHING about him)
- Sneakers: The Complete Collector's Guide from Urban Outfitters
- Garden State DVD
- Andy Warhol wallet

from my parents
- The OC board game
- Scene It Friends edition
- two sweaters (one argyll, one black and white striped
- The Devil Wears Prada DVD
- face stuff
- portable docking system (iPod, CDs, radio ITS SWEET)
- fuzzy socks
- toblerone
- hershey kisses
- Revlon body stuff
- a hair straightener/blow drying thing
- $160
- orange and strawberry lip balm
- Seventeen magazine
- underwear
- a satellite receiver for tv downstairs

what i bought myself today
- two sleeveless hoodies from American Apparel (one green and blue, the other grey [sleeveless hoodies=my new favorite thing])
- Skull Candy earphones (Kevin said they're a good brand)
- a white Puma long sleeved shirt from Gravity Pope

and i have come to the conclusion that West Edmonton Mall sucks ass. Whyte Ave is definitely the best place to shop. i'm so happy we only went there today. the things there are so much nicer and unique. WEM is just full of people, i never get anything done there, it takes too long, i get headaches, PLUS the stuff there, is what everyone has.. its too mainstream.
at least Whyte Ave has some really unique stores, and you get to walk outside and everything.
the only really neat thing at WEM is the fact that my dad built the Body Shop by Buffalo upstairs, AND he made those colorful stairs on Bourbon Street.
yes, my daddy built those stairs. i know you're jealous.

definitely not inadequate

i think i have found my Buddha.
for real.

it's like this switch has been turned on that has been off for the past four months.
thank you bbs
you were real helpful

inadequate

for once i am too exhausted to type anything. i'll just let the thoughts roll around as they may or may not. and since Christmas is officially over in about 5 minutes, i think it's valid to look in retrospect at how awesome today was.

and how inadequate i really am when it comes to reality.

i hope everyone's Christmas was as awesome as mine =)

OLT = one last thing

since it's technically Christmas..
i would like to sincerely wish everybody a very merry christmas =)

blurb of right now

tomorrow is Christmas. it's Christmas right now. it's 12:03 am. i just worked on some Biology stuff.. trying to get it done. trying to get multiple things done. since tomorrow i know i won't have any problems waking up, i think i might stay up late to try to get multiple things done. i have done nothing these past few days. nothing that i had planned for myself. and i think before i reward myself with opening presents, i need to do what i had set myself out to do this weekend. i have two weeks off and i plan to make the best of it. there are a few things i had planned..
1) have a sleepover with Leigha
2) go snowboarding with Daniel and possibly Heather
3) stay in on New Years and spend time with my cousins
4) get my tongue pierced
5) go to the dentist
6) go Boxing Day Shopping
7) get my learners
8) come up with a possible New Years resolution (to stop chewing my nails is out of the question, as i have already decided i'll be doing it until i croak)
9) play the sims
10) finish 18 pages of Biology
11) start Math review
12) call Stephanie like she told me to =)

hopefully all goes well. although i can already tell you i probably won't do half the things on that list. but there's no harm in saying that i will try my hardest. i'll definitely try my very hardest. it would seriously mean a lot to me..

plus, i have decided i am happy where i am. i am happy i am sitting here writing about how happy i am. i've realized that even though it may seem like i don't have him, i really do have him. i am important to him, he does like me and care about me. and it makes me happy to say that, in return, he has me. he is important to me, i like him and i care about him back.
i figured, if i tried making someone else important, if i tried liking someone else, i would forget about him. but all that did was make me realize how much i like every little bit of him and his personality, and how comfortable i am around him to just be
myself.

blurb of december 14

"maybe it's time for me to re-establish my goals as a human occupant of Earth, to re-locate myself, find my true purpose and search for the fun that everyone seems to be finding, but me. life seems and feels so mediocre right now. maybe with some form of transportation, some legal papers that allow me to use a form of transportation and possibly some freedom which is only a result of excellent school-manship, i could really enjoy this magical thing God has given me that we all call life.
it becomes tiring waiting around for people to realize exactly how amazing i am. it becomes tiring when your best friends behaviour makes you question why, exactly, she's your best friend and why you hang out with her every single day despite the fact that she seems to bring anger into your life more than anything else. i don't want to be a bitter person on the inside. i try my hardest to avoid that, so i keep my mouth shut. but sometimes keeping my mouth shut isn't good. i don't want to be a bitter person on the inside, but that's all i seem to feel all the time. i'm insecure, and i am aware of that. trying desperately to gain some security. but then again not, because i keep waiting around for him, and each day that i spend waiting, my self-respect seems to drop lower and lower. i always talk of how i miss Beverly, how i want to leave already. and then i turn around and say how good life is. if life was good, i wouldn't want things i can't have, i would want exactly what i have. things just never seem good enough. they seem good from far, but far from good.
and i want desperately to change that. i really do. i want to love life and not fake it. i want to be able to sit here and not have my eyes fill up with tears and the tension grow in my throat. the only place that seems satisfying is outer space, to look at Earth and what a crummy yet beautiful place it is. to look at this place and where i am in life, and to feel the relief of not having to deal with it all.
it seems the only thing that makes me smile is his voice, and even then sometimes the things he says, or does not say, take that smile away in an instant.
maybe i'm thinking too much, maybe i'm thinking too little.
maybe i should go with the flow"

merry christmas eve everybody
=)

musica nostalgica

Fra le tue braccia fammi tornare dimentichiamo questo dolore bella la vita, grande il tuo amore per questa notte fammi sognare. Ho provato a darti tutto il mio cuore a negarti tutto quanto di me ma solo tu mi fai sentire speciale ogni mio respiro vive di te

jamaican me crazy

- i went to my old house today before we went to church. we walked up to the front door and my mom rang the doorbell. my dad came and unlocked it and a big smile came across my face just hearing that familiar noise of opening a door. it's incredible how accustomed we become to familiar repetitive noises.. my dad was painting the inside. i walked in and i felt like a giant. i got this really weird feeling.. like after a drag i feel real bouncy, i felt that way. walking down the hallway that seemed so small now. i walked into my old room. i examined everything. i smelled the air and the paint. i saw the scratch marks on the floor from when i used to re arrange my room. i opened and closed my closet. i remember those doors used to break so often. i ran my fingers down the door and felt a remaining piece of tape. i didn't know whether it was from the previous tenants, or from 5 years ago when i used to tape things up on my walls. then i turned around and noticed how i was able to see right out the window. i was never tall enough to see right through it. and now i could. my room used to seem so complicated.. my house used to seem so complicated. and as i walked upstairs and downstairs, opened every cupboard, turned on every tap, flicked on every light, closed every door, it seemed so simple. so simple so small. so squeaky. i walked over the squeaky parts an extra time. i entered every room to see it empty, but i let my imagination remember how everything was placed when i lived there. where my brother's stereo was placed, where my bed was, where the computer had been, where the couches were, where we sat to eat dinner. i looked out the kitchen window and i turned to my mom and said "this house is so ghetto". and it's true, if anyone were to walk in, they would've thought it was ghetto. the patterns on the walls, the tiles, the yellow fridge.. sometimes i go to people's houses and think they look ghetto, and then i walk into my old house which is equally ghetto, and it seems so different. it's like a comfortable ghetto. i love that house, and i stopped myself from tearing up 'cause that's gay. my mom and brother want to sell the house, but me and my dad still want to own it and keep renting it out. the thing is, my brother and mother say that if someone owned the house, they would treat it better than people who rent it out. we left, and my mom said that visiting that house makes her fed up because the people who live there always trash it.

i miss it.

- we were early for church, so we drove to the Portuguese store or whatever and we bought bread. sweet bread. i really liked it.
- i cleaned my closet. i really cleaned my closet today. it's nice now.
- i watched the oc from Thursday. and was interrupted when my dad gave me this picture of him a very very very very very long time ago. it was a picture of him in a boat going fishing. he was sitting, wearing these light blue short shorts, he had these high socks on and these really sweet sneakers on that i wish i could have, and he had this massive afro. and when i say massive, it was a massive pile of curls atop his head. and beside him was a pack of cigarettes. it made me laugh. i love old pictures. this one was really sweet though. it made you wanna be on that boat fishing with him.

-Seth proposed to Summer. i wonder if it was for real.

the holiday

kay so weirdest thing.

Let Go by Frou Frou is in The Holiday too. it has a rather decent soundtrack too. when Cameron Diaz and Jude Law were gonna get it on Just For Now by Imogen Heap was playing. OMG Jude Law has kids in this movie and it's the cutest thing on Earth. he's DEFINITELY a D.I.L.F.
there were some really good quotes too.. some that explained things to me very well..

Arthur Abbott: Say a man and a woman both need something to sleep in and both go to the same men's pajama department. The man says to the salesman, "I just need bottoms," and the woman says, "I just need a top." They look at eachother and that's the 'meet cute.'

Arthur Abbott: Iris, in the movies, we have leading ladies and we have the best friend. You, I can tell, are a leading lady, but for some reason, you're behaving like the best friend.


there were more, but i couldn't find it :(
